The president has finally been able to add jobs in our messed-up economy. Due to his leadership, hundreds of jobs will be offered in the little town of Thomson, Ill. It’s about 150 miles from Mr. Obama’s Chicago.There are about 750 people living there, but they have this big prison that can house 1,600 inmates. But there are only about 200 criminals there now. This place is costing the taxpayers millions a year to stay open.Now, though, it will pay for itself because Mr. Obama is moving some 100 detainees from Gitmo there. Now the prison will have more specially trained guards, more cooks, more doctors, more recreation facilities, more prayer areas and more physiologists to make sure these good people get what they deserve.The government will provide each guy a lawyer who will show that these poor prisoners are victims of our corrupt military. These people are not our enemies, they are just poor misguided children and by God we will show them the Great Satan can be nice.So you see, by hiring all these people to take care of and rehabilitate the prisoners, those hired will pay federal, state and local taxes that will stimulate the economy of Thomson, Ill., everyone will have a job there and many others from Chicago. This will help eliminate the national debt.Don’t worry, China, the Great One will be sending you a check!Robert BonnetteHouma
